@@RobHollanderMusic true, as a guitar player with 55 years of playing, I've always noticed two things with Frank: He makes every note mean something (no filler notes, no gimmicks either)...and he always takes the more difficult road (he always plays all the complicated parts of his songs, or the covers he does). The Man is astonishing..a real players player...
Absolutely true William. Taking nothing from Stevie, I’ve seen Frank play since the early 70’s when Stevie was a kid. There’s simply no one who ever got the Hendrix vibe as right as Frank. And yet, he was also doing dive bombs before Eddie. And like both, he never dried up while soloing. A remarkable artist, and gentleman.
I had Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush on 8 track and after it got eaten so many times that no amount of matchbooks in player I bought the album. Those who remember match packs to shim 8 tracks to play here’s to you
I have been listening to Frank since 1969 and his guitar style IS the best....and still is!! I'm 60+ l have worn out his albums, cassettes, and CDs for years and years and now to get that fucking DVD. Best stuff to listen to at any time... sex, text,work, air guitar in the shower, sleeping, waking up, in the rain, etc......420!!!
Frank was only 15 in 1969 you must of been listening to him play at clubs as a young teen in Montreal. He started playing guitar at 13 after playing drums for 3 years after changing instruments he started his band Mahogany Rush at age 17, his first album Maxoom released in 71. Frank and I are same age with me being exactly 2 months older. lol I remember first hearing Mahogany Rush back in mid 75 fell in love with his music and the way he played the guitar. How cool that must have been to watch him play in clubs back in the late 60’s. Keep rocking on with Frank and Mahogany Rush. ✌🏽
Certainly one of the lesser-known, but fantastic players!...The thing is, in the 70s and 80s, guitar was not so popular with newer generations of young people...Frank came along (in the USA) just a little bit late...for some reason, people passed him over, in favor of EVH--another great player. I do not know why this happened.
it always cracks me up to see all these kids on the covers of magazines like they are the new Blues Greats for example Joe Bonamassa Kenny Wayne etc etc when guys like Frank Marino never get any recognition give me a Fucking Break ! just listen to this and listen to them and it speaks for itself.
Awesome, clean blues, with just the right amount of gain & overdrive , that doesn't cloud the splendid electric tone, and every note & vibrato bend is clearly distinctively beautiful.
Why do people always miss the bus, this guy is someone i have never even heard of and he is just awesome, fine, very fine. Thank God for u tube clips or i would never have discovered him. He goes into my fav group along with Rory Gallagher, another discovery .
I saw Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush play 'live' a year or two before that. But, glad you're still a fan, so am I ! I'll be 63 this year. I still go to shows and love great music.
I'm 55... been a fan since age 10....got my 16 year old hooked on Frank.... when we listen to reallive and Frank's building up a solo...we both say..here it comes...hes gonna pull a Frank. One the best players ever.
It's a shame there are few high quality vids of Frank. I bought the Agora DVD, and Holy Frank! The guy was still one of the best of all time in his late 50's. Just a stunning 6 hours of amazing guitar driven rock, blues, and jazz. I understand Frank's health has taken a bad turn, so BUY THE DVD while it will still do him some good. Love ya, Frank, and thanks for all the wonderful music.
How absolutely amazing. Truly one of the greatest and most inspirational guitar legends of all time. Frank Marino has forgotten more riffs than the average virtuoso guitar player ever knows!. His knowledge is as eternally vast as the universe itself. He weaves melodic tapestries of wonder with his flowing pentatonic riffs of glory. He took the electric guitar in the direction the spirit of Hendrix guided him and added, dare I say it, Jazz!
Never tired of Frank Marino. Had the pleasure of seeing him many times. Good guy. Great player. Had more feel in his left pinky than most will ever ever have. Very astute technically and an even better feel player!! Hope to see him in 2020. There was supposed to be a 2020 Tour but the virus has got the best of us all currently. Great thoughts for all!!
Goddamn I love this mans playing!! Thanks you Frank!! You've made some of the most mindblowing music I've ever heard and as a fellow axe man you stand shoulder to shoulder with the giants! Bravo sir! Live long and prosper!!
Geoffrey Hazard from what I've read, Frank is a very humble guy (probably due to faith) and doesn't consider himself a guitar God. Frank, sorry but I got news for you. You're a guitar God.
Wow... Frank never ceases to amaze me. There are a LOT of incredible guitarist/singer/songwriters out there... But Frank stands alone when it comes to raw energy... If I were his bass player, I'd probably tell him after every song, "Frank, you better grab another guitar and let that one rest a while..." Play on Frank... We're listening...
Blues, swing, jazz, rock all in one! Amazing! I was lucky to see him 2008 in concert. I believe he wants to stay out of the limelight amap. He is truly one of the best electric guitar players alive. Trust my ears! LOL. If you every get the chance to see him play live- Go!!
Simplemente impresionante! He descubierto a Frank Marino en este 2020, y se ha aupado directamente al grupo de mis guitarristas favoritos, entre los que estarían también Gary Moore, Rory Gallagher, David Gilmour, Jimmy Page, Ritchie Blackmore o Eric Clapton entre otros grandes...
Frank has got so much soul , he took the classic Hendrix tune into another level , this is the best cover of Red House ever , simply irresistable & incomparable !
@@hesch-tagwhat can I say man...different strokes and all that. the version on his reallive album is better than this vid....also on TH-cam. Bluesy, jazzy, shreddy but thing is is...its live and not one sour note...for my tastes, I just like it much better than other versions. Its classic Frank Marino and I'm simply a fan of the guy. Was listening to him when my friends were listening to Donny Osmond singing about puppy love. Haven't heard winter's version yet
Frank's a true artist. He's got his own guitars & sound, he's got taste, his phrasing & dynamics are superb, he's got speed, you name it ...he's got IT !
Thanks for posting !!!! Great Quebec guitarist !!! Hi had d the chance to see tham at--- La Place des Nations at La Ronde ---- What a privilege i had . Frank is Sooooooooo Underated ! He is a Guitar Hero !!!
THE BLUES DELUXE !!!! Man, that sounds better and better every time I hear it!!!!! What an incredible treatment of an incredible song!!!! Thank you once again, Frank, for decades of great music!!!! J.F.M.
I saw Mahogany Rush twice way back in the 70's. They were absolutely phenomenal. Frank is a really nice guy too. Some years back I conversed with him via email. I was really impressed with what a humble, down to earth guy he is.
I fist heard Frank with Mahogany Rush, on an 8 track in 1978. I still have that music! It's on CD, but it is still one of my all time favorite concerts!
I saw frank in 1978 at the Orlando Orange bowl there was 9 other bands including Ted Nugent and he blew everyone away the best blues ever in the afternoon it wasn't even dark
A long long tyme ago ,in a land far far away,I went to see Nazareth. Mr Frank Marino opened the show.[Landsdown Park Ottawa 1977 me thinks]I was amazed by Frank and still am .This is simply among the best guitar playing that can be heard from any era.Check out his rock jazz fusion piece Tales of the Unexpected.I concure with the comments about Kenny wayne ,Joe B etc .This man ,F.M.is truly one of the finest,cleanest presenters of what blues rock guitar is ,was, and is meant to be .
I had the good fortune to photograph Frank Marino in a small club not too to long ago, and also see him in 1979 as the headliner with Mahogany Rush and the band before him was Saint Paradise (Derek St Holmes of Ted Nugent with the full band from Montrose without Sammy Hagar) and the very first band of the show was some new band from Australia on their first American tour.....AC/DC with of course Bon Scott at that time :-) Love me some Frank Marino !!
Absolutely beautiful. Frank Marino still my favorite after all these decades. Can't wait for the new Mahogany Rush DVD. Merry Christmas Frank and your whole family. Hope to see you out again in 2016. Nice job on the Lizards CD as well.
that is the funniest shit ive ever read, there were tons of great players out there who were contemporaries of his that were absolute monster great players. All this whiney shit his fans dish out about “recognition” could basically be looked at in two ways, he never had the songwriting talent his peers did and all that hendrix crap he was known for definitely didnt help out in the 70s. He literally has gone on record and said because of the hendrix stuff and that fabricated newspaper story he was a complete outcast If he would’ve put out the stuff that he did in the early 80s about 6 yrs earlier i think it would’ve been a different story but instead during the 70s he was known for covers and stuff that was derivative of hendrix & his other influences.
Have always loved Frank from the 70s, his Agora DVD package is truly awesome 👌. I was fortunate to see him on a tour with Uli Jon Roth in Portsmouth UK around 2001, with Jack Bruce and Glenn Hughes sharing bass duties. Unbelievable show, still remember it 20 years later, was reminiscing about it with Uli last year at one of his shows in London, his comments about Frank were respectful and full of admiration, they are both huge Hendrix fans and their renditions of Hendrix music are second to none.
Years ago I went to ROUTE 66 in Burlingame, CA to see Marino play in a small club with a backup band called the Gangstars...played most of the Juggernaut album plus played Strange Universe etc...it really showed me how through the years he just better...just deepened my love for the music he plays...he totally blew the doors off the house there. Would love to get a copy of this show...thanks for posting this song...it is frikken AWESOME
I was a Marino fan from 1970s. Roy Buchanan, Danny Gatton, etc I begged the dazed idiots at school to come see this unknown guitar player who was playing the Arizona State Fair.. His 1st album had just come out and I heard a song played on a Globe Az station. I got these guys who I played guitar with to see SRV before he had the lyrics down for Couldn't Stand The Weather so he just sat on the edge of the stage and wailed for 60 minutes. admission was FREE! 150 min. of pure killer guitar.
saw him live at Playing With Fire on Lewis And Clark landing on the Mighty Missouri River and it gave me chills when he did Strange Universe...spectacular guitarist~!@$%~!
First saw Frank in the early 80s, totally blown away. Still play a '68 SG. Now deaf in my right ear. Wish I could hear this the way it was meant to be. Lesson to you kiddies, once gone, it never comes back. Great memories though.
Mr frank marino will always remain such. A master of electrifing guitar blues. Our familys thougts and prayers go out to frank and his family we pray you find yourself well rich and doing better weather or not you will ever preform again you will always play in our hearts and soul this is what your music mastery has done since cal jam very your style riffs and runs. Just so emotionaly intense thank for all of dedication hard work its to bad they have not realized. They need to induct you to the music hall of fame my thoughts probably millions of people feel the same way richard. La cali
Absolutely true, I was watching him play the same song on a video from 1979 a few days ago and he sounds closer to Hendrix there, although even then he had his own style and individualistic quirks that all great guitarists have. Here however he is clearly talking in his own voice and I think Hendrix would approve. One thing he and Jimi share in common is that like Albert King and many other blues guitarists they have an elastic sound.
Wooow... never heard of mr.Frank 'till today when I accidentally stumbled across one of his vids on youtube... what a great guitarist. This is as great as it can be... stunning.
Very tasty blues licks and chording. I've seen Frank play shows. His playing never gets stale or predictive. When you hear someone ask Zakk Wylde who he is listening to and he says "Frank Marino", that pretty much says it all.
that should be the day with his next album greatness to the point of Ridiculousness. name one more highly underrated guitar player than this beautiful man.
Again, Frank is the epitome of the most underrated rock and blues guitarist of his generation. Every bit as good as SRV.
Frank is doing stuff that is beyond the scope of Stevie Ray, and I love Stevie Ray.
@@RobHollanderMusic true, as a guitar player with 55 years of playing, I've always noticed two things with Frank: He makes every note mean something (no filler notes, no gimmicks either)...and he always takes the more difficult road (he always plays all the complicated parts of his songs, or the covers he does). The Man is astonishing..a real players player...
Absolutely true William. Taking nothing from Stevie, I’ve seen Frank play since the early 70’s when Stevie was a kid. There’s simply no one who ever got the Hendrix vibe as right as Frank. And yet, he was also doing dive bombs before Eddie. And like both, he never dried up while soloing. A remarkable artist, and gentleman.
Better then SRV. Frank can play any style at a high level, SRV was amazing don't get me wrong but Frank is elite
It is true that they both ripped off Hendrix (among others).
I had Frank Marino and Mahogany Rush on 8 track and after it got eaten so many times that no amount of matchbooks in player I bought the album. Those who remember match packs to shim 8 tracks to play here’s to you
Look kids, a real guitar hero. Thanks Frank, for leaving your soul on the ground, after burning down the house, night after night. A legend.
most underrated musician from the 70's
I have been listening to Frank since 1969 and his guitar style IS the best....and still is!! I'm 60+ l have worn out his albums, cassettes, and CDs for years and years and now to get that fucking DVD.

my brother and Frank were close growing up, so I got to watch Frank practice and saw numerous live performances over the years...yes he is a genius
cool story, ya he is unreal player for sure.
Awesome Bro 👍 I agree 💯
Very deep guy intellectually too! (No real formal education). Check out Everyone Loves Guitar interview 👍🎸
You are one fortunate dude!!
Lucky!
the most under rated guitar player ever.

One of the GREATS that has gone unnoticed for his whole career
That's fine because he went unnoticed by the unnoticeable's ...who are they that don't recognize this brilliant man
One of top guitarists on earth no one knows about.
Even if I gave a shit, you want to talk about R&R HOF.........Frank is THE missing name
blues no age no color no gender no politics just music played the right way
Frank can write great songs and sing too , a true legend obviously we've all bought the agora package immense MANCHESTER UK 🇬🇧
Frank is an amazing guitarist. His jazz / blues is some of the best you will ever hear.
it always cracks me up to see all these kids on the covers of magazines like they are the new Blues Greats for example Joe Bonamassa Kenny Wayne etc etc when guys like Frank Marino never get any recognition give me a Fucking Break ! just listen to this and listen to them and it speaks for itself.
I watch this video every so often and try to accompany Frank.Redhouse is one of my favorites of all time blues numbers, so is Frank Marino
I can't even imagine music without Frank Marino .
Magnificent, Franks understanding of the blues changes blows his 70s contemporaries who claim to be blues playing aficionados away.
Awesome, clean blues, with just the right amount of gain & overdrive , that doesn't cloud the splendid electric tone, and every note & vibrato bend is clearly distinctively beautiful.
Absolutely true!!!
Why do people always miss the bus, this guy is someone i have never even heard of and he is just awesome, fine, very fine. Thank God for u tube clips or i would never have discovered him. He goes into my fav group along with Rory Gallagher, another discovery .
psst! hey, yeah you...Roy Buchanan.
I first heard Frank Marino when I was 10 I'm now 51 I still crank his music
I saw Frank Marino & Mahogany Rush play 'live' a year or two before that. But, glad you're still a fan, so am I ! I'll be 63 this year. I still go to shows and love great music.

One of the most underrated guitarist ever
Frank is ....well.. Frank. Have not heard anyone play like him yet.
He's not underrated. He is virtually unknown. Thank God for youtube. Frank is fricken awesome and now folks can discover him.
Frank Marino, Robben Ford!!! What more can you ask for man. Very melodic.
Frank set the Blues on fire , he is such a hell of a guitar player , one of the greatest ever !
That man gets so much soul out of that Gibson SG. Nice re-interpretation and he sings well too. All the great rockers are great blues men as well.
How absolutely amazing. Truly one of the greatest and most inspirational guitar legends of all time. Frank Marino has forgotten more riffs than the average virtuoso guitar player ever knows!. His knowledge is as eternally vast as the universe itself. He weaves melodic tapestries of wonder with his flowing pentatonic riffs of glory. He took the electric guitar in the direction the spirit of Hendrix guided him and added, dare I say it, Jazz!
he wrings out all that can be wringed out,amazing,made me weep
Wow..... I think he's the best guitar player I ever heard and I'm 63....
Never tired of Frank Marino. Had the pleasure of seeing him many times. Good guy. Great player. Had more feel in his left pinky than most will ever ever have. Very astute technically and an even better feel player!! Hope to see him in 2020. There was supposed to be a 2020 Tour but the virus has got the best of us all currently. Great thoughts for all!!
The phrasing jazz runs are fantastic
Frank is a Freaking Guitar/Singer God...So soulful....Chops with Feeeeeeeel from Heaven..WOW,
Killer version, Frank, dam this is awesome, lots of soul, !!!!
One of the most under rated guitar players ever! He´s great.
Goddamn I love this mans playing!!
Thanks you Frank!! You've made some of the most mindblowing music I've ever heard and as a fellow axe man you stand shoulder to shoulder with the giants! Bravo sir! Live long and prosper!!
The perfect example of what a "guitar hero" should be!
Geoffrey Hazard from what I've read, Frank is a very humble guy (probably due to faith) and doesn't consider himself a guitar God. Frank, sorry but I got news for you. You're a guitar God.
how can anyone thumbs down this , this is great
And then some..
Frank Marino and mahogany rush boy badass and he's always been a badass unnoticed but I notice yeah buddy
OMG... Spectacular! Absolutely spectacular!!!
Wow... Frank never ceases to amaze me. There are a LOT of incredible guitarist/singer/songwriters out there... But Frank stands alone when it comes to raw energy...

F'ing incredible, I'm a huge fan now
Frank has got so much soul , he took the classic Hendrix tune into another level , this is the best cover of Red House ever , simply irresistable & incomparable !
Randall's island New York pop 1970 is the best version.
GOTTA LOVE JOHNNY WINTER S VERSION
I like Frank's version better than Jimi's. Check the reallive cut
@@kaz9947 this doesn't even have a bluesy feel.

Been fan since I heard him first time in-77. Incredible artist!
He does more than play fast licks, his playing is melodic and true to the melody of the song.
Frank's a true artist. He's got his own guitars & sound, he's got taste, his phrasing & dynamics are superb, he's got speed, you name it ...he's got IT !
Thanks for posting !!!! Great Quebec guitarist !!! Hi had d the chance to see tham at--- La Place des Nations at La Ronde ---- What a privilege i had . Frank is Sooooooooo Underated ! He is a Guitar Hero !!!
Red House on the Real Live! album is almost orgasmic. Hi-Res, 24-bit, 41000Hz... the literal definition of 'music to my ears'.
Awesome beautiful stunning exceptional thank you!
THE BLUES DELUXE !!!! Man, that sounds better and better every time I hear it!!!!! What an incredible treatment of an incredible song!!!! Thank you once again, Frank, for decades of great music!!!! J.F.M.
This is so beautiful, it's actually jazz blues which I love - so poetic and soulful. Jimi would love it.
Yeah!!! this rips..
Crazy it took his kids and the internet to show him how people still loved him.
What a great and very underrated guitarist extraordinaire ...
I got turned on to this genius when I was a 15 yr old. Loved it! I. 60 now and it is still great!
Frank is a complete god send to music!!!
This & Jmi's version, are my favorite of this song I love Franks, cool funky blues & jazzy take on this, GREAT!!!
Amazing performance!!, greetings from Argentina!!
Me and my friend play and saw him in a 300 seat club, great to watch so close, sound was amazing
I've been listening to Frank since 1979. One hell of a guitarslinger.
I saw Mahogany Rush twice way back in the 70's. They were absolutely phenomenal. Frank is a really nice guy too. Some years back I conversed with him via email. I was really impressed with what a humble, down to earth guy he is.
I saw Mahogany Rush play at the War Memorial building in Trenton NJ sometime in the seventies.Frank is a special player that needs more recognition.
I saw him in 1978 or so at the Orange Bowl and rocked our ass off the next day.
I fist heard Frank with Mahogany Rush, on an 8 track in 1978. I still have that music! It's on CD, but it is still one of my all time favorite concerts!
So beautiful to see and hear such raw talent at it's best ✌️😎
One of the most versatile guitarist I've ever seen and I've seen many
I saw frank in 1978 at the Orlando Orange bowl there was 9 other bands including Ted Nugent and he blew everyone away the best blues ever in the afternoon it wasn't even dark
A long long tyme ago ,in a land far far away,I went to see Nazareth. Mr Frank Marino opened the show.[Landsdown Park Ottawa 1977 me thinks]I was amazed by Frank and still am .This is simply among the best guitar playing that can be heard from any era.Check out his rock jazz fusion piece Tales of the Unexpected.I concure with the comments about Kenny wayne ,Joe B etc .This man ,F.M.is truly one of the finest,cleanest presenters of what blues rock guitar is ,was, and is meant to be .
I got to see this guitar magician in the mid and late '70s and it was an experience!
so beautiful and soulful. Thanks, Frank.
'What would rock and roll be without a little blues guitar?'
It wouldn't be at all.
I had the good fortune to photograph Frank Marino in a small club not too to long ago, and also see him in 1979 as the headliner with Mahogany Rush and the band before him was Saint Paradise (Derek St Holmes of Ted Nugent with the full band from Montrose without Sammy Hagar) and the very first band of the show was some new band from Australia on their first American tour.....AC/DC with of course Bon Scott at that time :-) Love me some Frank Marino !!
I was there!!!! Awesome 👍😁!!!
Absolutely beautiful. Frank Marino still my favorite after all these decades. Can't wait for the new Mahogany Rush DVD. Merry Christmas Frank and your whole family. Hope to see you out again in 2016. Nice job on the Lizards CD as well.
Damn, Frank is so good, it's pathetic!! I'd love to meet him some day, shake his hand and congratulate him.
... and that, kiddies, is how it's done!! 😁
this is what you call playing with tastefull phrasing and restraint
exactly what marinos critics say he lacks
so much for them
Wow! An unsung Hero for sure. Just sublime playing 👍
The real GOAT. Such a shame he never got the recognition that some of his peers got who have nothing on him as a player
that is the funniest shit ive ever read, there were tons of great players out there who were contemporaries of his that were absolute monster great players. All this whiney shit his fans dish out about “recognition” could basically be looked at in two ways, he never had the songwriting talent his peers did and all that hendrix crap he was known for definitely didnt help out in the 70s.

There’s nothing to say just listen to the jam. Badass blues guitarist with a rock n roll twist. Lord have mercy.
he isn't underrated in my book. he is fantastic! i been a fan since mid 70's
Have always loved Frank from the 70s, his Agora DVD package is truly awesome 👌.
I was fortunate to see him on a tour with Uli Jon Roth in Portsmouth UK around 2001, with Jack Bruce and Glenn Hughes sharing bass duties.

Hard to believe somebody can be this good.
Tasty! Thats what is missing nowadays with players, they can play fast , tons of notes but they ain’t saying a thing. Frank Marino rules
Lol You pretty much described frank for the most part, he’s fast and he plays tons of notes
Years ago I went to ROUTE 66 in Burlingame, CA to see Marino play in a small club with a backup band called the Gangstars...played most of the Juggernaut album plus played Strange Universe etc...it really showed me how through the years he just better...just deepened my love for the music he plays...he totally blew the doors off the house there. Would love to get a copy of this show...thanks for posting this song...it is frikken AWESOME
If there is ANY question as to just how good this guy is then one need go no further than this vid.
Totally underrated!
My new favorite cover of this song. Cool how he changes the song from 12 bar to- what, 24 bar? And even cooler is how well it works.
Quel plaisir 😎😎

If Frank and Randy Hansen ever join the Experience Hendrix lineup.....I will have died and gone to Heaven!!
A master-class in useing jazz&blues to bring about a great song to life. Mr Marino, you are the best!
that should be the day with his next album greatness to the point of Ridiculousness. name one more highly underrated guitar player than this beautiful man.
